What to wear at a job interview?

Question

I am a female interviewing for a senior position, and I have 10 years of work experience to leverage. I am a confident person, I know my stuff, and am not nervous about the interview per se.

I am unsure what to wear because I would like to avoid the typical "business pantsuit", of which I have a number. I am pretty sure other candidates will wear the same.

Equally, I am not sure if an in-between formula (navy blue jeans with a white shirt and black suit coat, for instance) would not be perceived as "too casual".

Also, any colour advice? Black and beige and grey are kind of drab, but I am afraid that moire daring colours would look circus-like.

Thanks in advance!

You should most definitely wear the skinny blue jeans, a white blouse with a dressy scarf or chunky necklace. A brightly coloured blazer to match the scarf or necklace and high heals the same colour as the scarf or necklace. Or skinny chino type trousers in a navy colour with navy pumps or high heals and a navy cream striped top with a navy cardiagon. You need to look clean and sharp. Little make up and hair tied up in a tight pony tail or a tight doughnut bun

What type of job is it? That should have been included in your question.
